He spent last summer in western Manitoba with an unbanded female, but they didn't try nesting ...
Now how do you keep track of all of them, TPC?!  :o Did you actually see him?! You sure do get around!

Wonderful photo of Brooklyn - he's very handsome.

Is this the first time he's been back home? If so, was he spotted elsewhere the last couple of years?

Yes Rose, you can say that Hurricane was the resident female last year  ;)  Who ever owns the nest, owns the territory.

Who are the pair. the male is new or the female??

Well bev I think tpc and Dan (conservation) have got it sorted out. The new male is Brooklyn(3 years old born in Brandon) and last years (can I say resident) female Hurricane also 3 years old and born on the Radisson. They are incubating 4 eggs, there a few Dust Ups with another pair and it seems this pair came out the winner, they are both young so hopefuly we will have them around for next few years. :)

Neither, there is a window that we can use, along with binocs to get a good look in the box  :)
Would that be the same window the Mckenzie Company had a camera set up some years ago so employees and probably conservation could see into the nestbox?

It would ....
